“My husband is a perfumer who has been all over France ND even trained under Guerlain...and very hard to shop for....so he has a VERY astute nose.. I wanted to surprise him and do it on my own and did some research and bc of covid I could not go smell anywhere b4hand I purchased so bought online. He was blown away by how marvelous this was, I was too! It was a fresh bottle in mint condition, and and perfect present! Amazing fragrance”
“Purchased Feb '21 with a coupon making the price quite attractive. I intended to hold the unopened package while I worked through some other colognes. Plans changed after I entered the date code (20872) on before storing the bottle. It proved to be manufactured in 2012. I tried to process a refund, which it seems it not allowed for this type of product. Given a choice between opening it and reselling in the open market, I rolled the dice and popped the cellophane.The fragrance is very clearly genuine and is still fine. All the orange peel, vetiver and Iso E Super cedar notes sit properly in their places. The fragrance is sophisticated, masculine, seeming fairly mature and the woodier notes last on the skin for the whole day. If you know what you're buying when you order, Terre d'Hermes is fantastic. If you haven't smelled it before, it might be worth trying to sample before purchasing.So in the end everything turned out OK, but potential buyers should be aware that (at least in this case), Amazon has shipped unusually old product without any disclaimer in the product information.”
